now

now
At this time, or at the present moment; or at a time contemporaneous with something done. At the present time.
"Now" as used in a statute ordinarily refers to the date of its taking effect, but the word is sometimes used, not with reference to the moment of speaking but to a time contemporaneous with something done, and may mean at the time spoken of or referred to as well as at the time of speaking. Word "now" used in will normally refers to time of testator's death; but, in light of context, may apply to date of will.
